CPU Name:
This item displays the CPU name.
Model Name:
This item displays the CPU model name.
CPU Operating Speed:
This item displays the CPU operating speed according to the type and speed of your CPU. You can also
select the [User Define] option to enter the manual option.
 CPU FSB Clock (MHz):
This item selects the external clock frequency. Due to the specification limit of the CPU you installed, the
speed you set over its standard bus speed is supported, but not guaranteed.
 Ratio (FSB:AGP:PCI):
This item displays the ratio among the clock of FSB, AGP, and PCI. Take the 4:2:1 ratio for instance, if
the FSB clock is 133MHz (133 x 4/4), the AGP clock will be 66MHz (133 x 2/4), and the PCI clock will
be 33MHz (133 x 1/4).
 Multiplier Factor:
This item displays the multiplier factor of the CPU you installed.
